I assume that you got this from
<http://www.sunworld.com/sunworldonline/swol-02-1998/swol-02-python_p.html>.
I asked the same question myself a while back, and the inimitable effbot
gave me the following response...

'if you look at the HTML source, you'll find that the line was
supposed to be:

entry.bind("<Key-Return>", evaluate)

but the script is still buggy; to make the "submit" button work, you have to
change the evaluate command to:

def evaluate(event=None):
label['text'] = "Result: " + str(eval(expression.get())) 

</F>'
